Criawips aims to become a full featured presentation that offers the perfect platform both for small presentations used to explain things to other people and for big presentations used for commercial presentations.

Thus it should become easy to use, provide a good integration with other applications to become a presentation platform that can compete with commercial applications like MS PowerPoint, OpenImpress and Apple's Keynote.

Criawips is based upon the GNOME development platform [1] and some libraries from GNOME Office [2].
